About
This meme originally came about from a parody video series imitating the popular magician, David Blaine. It is called "David Blaine Street Magic" and was made by Mikey Day & Michael Naughton who also acted in the videos. Every installment in this series involves "David" following two stereotypically implied "homosexual" males and picking on them with magic tricks.
"He just pissed orange soda."
David stares at camera
"Does it hurt??"
Why did it pick up?
What makes this humorous is both the males who repeatedly respond with phrases such as "what the eff" in a flustered manner, combined with David Blaine's comically exaggerated stare at the camera after each trick and his overly relaxed demeanor. To date, the first video in the series has over 33 million views, and the second, over 11 million.
